[Asterisk-bsd] Several warning messages

[Andy Hamilton]

Dmitriy:

Your musiconhold and iax2 errors are most likely because you don't
have some sort of hardware timer, like a zaptel device. As the warning
says, you may have some choppiness. I have used Asterisk for a while
on one box without a timing device (zaptel or otherwise) and had no
noticeable problems.

If you don't use any Cisco phones in Call Manager mode, you may want to add:
noload => chan_skinny.so
to your modules.conf.

Additionally, the chan_oss error is most likely from the lack of a
sound card, improperly configured and/or install sound card, or other
sound card issue. Chances are (correct me if I'm wrong) that you won't
really need a sound card unless you plan to to calling right from the
console; to you modules.conf, you may want to add:
noload => chan_oss.so
to prevent * from loading or trying to load the sound card channel drivers.
